BIG SPOILER WARNINGS FOR CAPTAIN AMERICA #25

Yeah, like you haven't heard by now. I will admit, I got totally caught off guard by this. I know now that it had broken on several of the comic websites a few days previous, and all the major news stations broke the news as soon as Marvel would let them. But I guess I kind of got lucky(though not enough as you will see), as I had been in a news and media blackout for 300. I was trying to limit my exposure to ads and stuff like that so I would be fresh for the movie and consequently missed everything to do with Cap.
This was all ruined about noon on Wednesday when some body called up and asked "Do you have the new Captain America that came out today, y'know, the one where he gets killed?" My elequent response? "Uhhhhh, wait, what?"
I've heard many similar stories from a lot of customers who saw it on the news, or read about on CNN.com or something similar. I love it, we all spend so much time avoiding message boards, spoiler sights, and such to have Anderson Cooper blind-side us. You don't get to do that! There shall be a reckoning! You hear me! A reckoning!
Lastly, do any of you actually believe it? If I hadn't heard from major new outlets that Cap was dead, an obvious manipulation by Marvel, there was nothing in that comic that would have made me think that Cap was actually dead, or was going to stay dead. I'm sorry, maybe I'm just cynical, but for F#@$'s sake, this is comics people!
